Claim 14

The self-adhesive condom-type male urinary catheter of claim 9 wherein the generally cylindrical sheath is rolled up upon itself such that the interior surface is rolled up upon the exterior surface, wherein the first adhesive coating is at least partially rolled up upon the exterior surface of the generally cylindrical sheath.

Claim 15

The self-adhesive condom-type male urinary catheter of claim 11 wherein the first adhesive coating adheres to and is bonded to the interior surface of the generally cylindrical sheath, and wherein the first adhesive coating releasably adheres to the exterior surface of the generally cylindrical sheath such that the first adhesive coating can be separated from the exterior surface when the generally cylindrical sheath is unrolled.
